Photo Credits and Restoration Illustrations

For soot-stained walls, smoke in furnishings or hose water in a Concord home, call and one of our local fire restoration professionals will discuss the damage with you.

Room, technician and house pictures are illustrations rather than photographs of an actual job, customer, crew or address; real town photographs receive their credits below.

The rooms, technicians and houses on the home, fire restoration, next-step and about pages are illustrations made with an AI image tool. None of them shows a customer's home, a working crew, a finished job or a street address.

The pictures on the Charlotte, Harrisburg, Huntersville, Indian Trail, Lake Norman of Iredell, Mint Hill and Stallings town pages are drawings of a typical Piedmont Carolina street, made with an AI image tool, because no openly licensed photograph of those places could be matched to them. Each drawing stands for the region and does not show the actual place.
